Michael Brown was not 'murdered for jaywalking'. Even the outside Department of Justice report decided the tragic killing of Michael Brown was in self-defense. The evidence was overwhelming. He literally did invite his death at the hands of law enforcement and Darren Wilson wasn't given much of a choice. Eric Garner was murdered by a cop. That was a filthy a disgusting crime. So was Mr. Rice. So were many, many other black men, but Michael Brown being called "No Angel" is accurate. He had a criminal record and was stopped for matching the description of a shoplifting suspect, which he turned out to be guilty of. We can't just rewrite history to help solve a very disgusting problem. In fact, the fact that everyone was so willing to believe and riot over Michael Brown shows how serious the problem is. But that doesn't excuse us from telling the truth. Did McQuilliams have a criminal record that the media didn't talk about? He's disgusting yes, but it's hard to say that everyone ignored his criminal history (including this article by not talking about it), if he doesn't have one. But instead lets talk about some other white men who are well known for violence. Dylan Klebold, Timothy McVeigh, James Eagan Holmes, Lee Harvey Oswald, James Earl Ray and a whole bunch of others. It's not ignored in the way that the author tries to push. Even most of these guys to play the insanity defense (if they're not killed in the process of the crime) and get sentenced as normal assholes anyway. Even today, no one is talking about the mental illness of the Charleston shooter, Dylann Roof. They're just calling it how it is, a white supremacist asshole who killed a bunch of people.
